DESTINATION OF THE MONTH

DESTINATION OF THE MONTH 〰️

the netherlands

This month’s destination spotlight is the Netherlands — and it could not be more deserving. What makes it such a standout for us is how surprisingly easy it is to reach. A short drive paired with a smooth crossing turns the journey itself into part of the adventure, especially when it takes you through four different countries along the way. For the kids, that sense of movement and discovery — watching borders change and languages shift — was just as exciting as arriving.

The Netherlands is more than just Amsterdam.
